Rising Stars

Come and experience the future of classical music!

Each year, Calgary’s most talented rising stars compete in the Rotary Calgary Concerto Competition for the chance to perform with the Calgary Civic Symphony.

Be there as four incredible young artists perform movements from their chosen concertos with the full orchestra, and hear four more inspiring performers in a special pre-concert recital.

This is your chance to witness the next generation of musical brilliance — and to say, "I heard them when..."
